IoT has evolved from hyperbole to reality, with ‘lighthouse’ real-world production deployments proving demonstrable return on investment. The prevalent business models in IoT are moving from product sales to recurring revenue; and from products to platforms. Headquartered in New Delhi, NCR, EIGEN Technologies is an ISO 9001:2008 certified company that ventures into the challenging space of research to drive innovative IoT product engineering with end to end solution from the scratch including hardware, firmware & front end management GUI/mobile apps on cloud or Web servers.

EIGEN has been into design and development of smart solutions for almost a decade and has been working in advance electronics and communication domains like Wireless, VLSI & Embedded and Image Processing. With respect to IoT, EIGEN’s team has expertise on latest cutting edge wireless standards like Wifi, 802.15.4/Zigbee and Bluetooth Smart etc. Last year EIGEN launched the first Indian IoT enabled SmartLights controller “Enlighten” to automate Streetlights & commercial lighting. EIGEN also provides Wired to Wireless Gateway with embedded firmware, making sensors wireless for remote monitoring in Agriculture, Environmental etc. Such systems also help Industries in real time monitoring vital parameters like machine health monitoring to raise alarms and alerts if certain parameters go beyond permissible limits. With a vast portfolio of wireless sensors like Temperature, light, humidity, pressure and new modules with GPS, PIR and Accelerometer sensor; SENSEnuts, bolsters new applications in the area of location awareness, motion sensing and security.

The uniqueness of the platform SENSEnuts is its modular hardware & software for a wide range of applications and it is one of the very little connectivity hardware which not only provides connectivity to various appliances, machines or electrical devices but is also capable to embed intelligence. The seamless combination of connectivity to network plus embedded intelligence helps monitoring and control of almost any electric product remotely and in real time. “Though the whole concept sounds complex and cumbersome, modular SENSEnuts platform makes the whole experience very easy and faster like ready to plug and connect on the go.” says Pranav Tyagi, VP- IoT & Smart Solutions, EIGEN Technologies P. Ltd.

Also, as more IoT applications are deployed; developers are bound to face challenges like- Energy efficient algorithms for longer battery life; data security; faster transaction when billions of devices are accessing cloud servers; and continuous real time data analysis for in-time and accurate predictive updates. SENSEnuts targets these challenges effectively by providing the flexibility to choose from multiple wireless stacks based on energy efficient standards like (IEEE 802.15.4, Zigbee, 6LoPAN etc) or high bandwidth standards like (WiFi, Bluetooth, 2G/3G), integration with cloud servers whether proprietary or open source, both public and private clouds with security and authentication algorithms. The modular SENSEnuts platform creates complex IoT networks quickly, without any fuss to harness the immense potential and productivity of
IoT enablement.

With an assortment of customers from Research to defence and commercial sectors, EIGEN’s team aims to continue bringing in their whole experience and knowledge base to optimize different pieces of the IoT technologies’ spectrum - wireless connectivity, sensing technique, database handling and cloud integration- to deliver friendly front end applications with seamless experience.
